Reminders: Rifftrax at SFSketchFest/Best Of Rifftrax. I have tickets to the encore of Rifftrax Live: Manos. Provided we do not have a snowstorm (there’s a chance—last time a tornado, hail and migraine, this time a possibility of snow) or any other insanity going on at the time, I will be trying to go.

David R. Ellishaspassedaway unexpectedly,at the age of 60. He had been at work on his next film, Kite. May he rest in peace. He was a director who worked on Snakes On A Plane, Final Destination 2, and many others. He was also stunt coordinator for The Addams Family, Star Trek V: The Final Frontier, Ghost Dad, Warlock (1989), Phantom of the Mall: Eric’s Revenge, The Beastmaster, and many other tv shows and movies.

As a passing note as to how cluttered Nellie’s house was? Her daughter hired a cleaning crew. They’ve brought the back of a semi truck to cart things off, with extra dumpsters. They’ve been working almost non-stop (they took a break on Sunday afternoon) since Friday. They’ve hauled that thing away six times to the dump and back, and they’ve only made it into the living room. They get here at 7 AM every morning, and they don’t stop until 6 PM.

I am still in need of a beta reader for my Yuletide fanfic. If you don’t know anything about the Pushing Daisies fandom, but have the time to look over the story for spelling or punctuation errors, that’s still fine. As mentioned in another post, it’s 7689 words long.

Yuletide 2012 Nominations are now open.Nomination Confirmation/Rejection Tracking Post. Having recently seen Snow White And The Huntsman and Cabin In The Woods for the first time, I’m pleased to see that someone has nominated them both. As for me, I nominated Fright Night (1985), League of Extraordinary Gentlemen: 1996, and The Lost Skeleton of Cadavra. I saw someone else promising to add The Shadow, so I went with the runner-up from the poll (since I’m probably the only one that knows of Mr. Boogedy, I went with Lost Skeleton). I’m desperately hoping someone out there adds Ghostbusters, Back to the Future, and the Superdictionary.

Yesterday, I managed to watch the Joss Whedon panel live from Comic Con, because it was streaming through here. You can go through their archived streams section for the panels for that one, Doctor Who, Grimm, Nathan Fillion, Stan Lee, Psych, Robot Chicken, as well as quite a few others.
